Ideal Weight Calculator for Women
Compare several textbook “ideal weight” formulas alongside a midpoint BMI weight. Different clinics cite different formulas—seeing them together shows how widely the numbers spread for the same height.
No single formula defines a healthy weight for everyone. Muscle, genetics, ethnicity, pregnancy, medications, and age all matter. Treat this screen as curiosity and conversation-starter material, not an order to hit an exact pound.
In centimetres (cm), standing without shoes.
Subjective knob—honesty helps; extremes aren't diagnoses.
Formula comparison
Each row is an independent textbook estimate converted to kilograms (and pounds in the third column).
Next steps
If you're turning numbers into meals or exercise, estimate daily calorie needs here. For pregnancy/postpartum framing, rely on clinician goals rather than textbook tables alone.
Important usage notes & limitations
Reproductive timelines interact with contraception cessation, PCOS phenotype, transgender hormone therapy intensity, low body-fat athletic amenorrhea, and perimenopause. Hormonal contraception intentionally suppresses natural ovulatory signals until washout stabilization — calendar methods become meaningful only once cycles resume reliably.
